    • Maple Syrup x 2

  • Pick up the Feather.

  • Switch party back to Mario/Bowser/Geno.

• EQUIP Bowser:

  • Troopa Pin

• EQUIP Geno:

• EQUIP Mario:

  • Amulet

• Save before leaving if you want, then leave for another short cutscene in the main hall.

• After the cutscene, take the upper-left exit.

Two Level Room

• • Stay on the upper level of this room.  Ignore the chest on the lower level for now (we'll be back to pick it up later).

  • You can avoid the fan and green shy guy on the upper level by running along the bottom of the two rows of bricks in the floor.

Three Doors Room (Heavy Troopa in the middle)

• • Grab the flower in the chest in the corner, and go through the first door on the left.

  • Proceed through the next room avoiding the enemies.

  • Head down the stairs to reach the room with all the Nimbus people.

  • Talk to the purple robed man to get a Flower Jar.  Use it.

  • Talk to the guy on the very left to get the castle key.

  • Now head all the way back to the room with the three doors and head through the middle door behind the heavy troopa.

  • Talk to the egg after the shy guy leaves...

Birdo 

Part 1 - Egg

• • Mario and Bowser untimed attacks, Geno Boost Mario.

  • Mario and Bowser untimed attacks, Geno Boost Bowser.

  • Mario untimed attack (Shell cracks).

Part 2 - Birdo

• • Bowser uses Fright Bomb, Geno Boost himself.

  • Everyone Attacks from this point forward.

  • Afterwards, grab the second key and head to the next room.

Fan & Forkies Room

• • You can try to skip the fan, but this is risky and you'll have to run back around if the fan blows you off.  Safest option is to run into the fan and trigger the encounter.  If there is only one enemy, just kill it.  Otherwise run away and run past the fan immediately while it's flashing.

  • If you want to attempt to skip the fan, see the explanation in the image below:

• • Next step, skip the Forkies. (see image below)

Remaining Rooms

• • Sneak around the bottom of the Heavy Troopa if you can, otherwise just kill them.

  • Enter the throne room and do the cutscene with Valentina.

• • Afterwards, follow them out the back doorway to a hall with a save point.

• • • In the next long hallway with birds, jump in the middle to get a platform, and jump again for a hidden Star.  Kill 4 enemies in that room, and the rest in the next including Dodo.

• • CRITICAL: Before the next battle, make sure Bowser is in the MIDDLE slot in the party.

  • Head outside, fall down through the clouds, then take the spring back up to the town again and fight...

Dodo 

• • Geno Boost Mario, Mario Attacks.

  • Geno Boost himself, Mario Attacks.

  • Mario and Geno do Attacks on Valentina until Dodo and Bowser arrive.

  • Everyone use Attacks on Valentina until she falls.

• • Good RNG is Valentina using normal attacks, or attacking Bowser.

• • • If she uses Water Blast multiple times, or other powerful magic, use a healing item.

After Fight

• • Do the long cutscene, then leave the castle by heading back to the entrance from the throne room.

  • Along the way, you can pick up the flower in the chest on the lower level of the Two Level Room from before.

  • Once outside, go to the far right of town, and run along the side until you run OFF the screen.

  • Talk to the Shy and get the Fertilizer, then head back to Rose Town.
